How our party fish and chip van works in Deddington
A chip van turns a party into an occasion without anyone being stuck in the kitchen. The van parks, the fryers go on and the food goes out hot. We’re frequently asked to cater street parties and get-togethers with old friends, serving gravy, sausage and chips and curry sauce.
A country party near Deddington is perfect for fish and chips: fried fresh and eaten outside. Have a firm back-up spot for wet weather. Timings are planned around your party, so the food is ready when you want to eat.

How it works
The van needs a level, firm spot it can drive onto, near your guests, which we agree with you beforehand. Autumn and winter parties in Deddington get dark early: about 7:10pm in late September and 3:55pm in December, so think about lighting by the van.
- You share your date, numbers and address.
- We check the route in and send a price.
- We arrive in good time to set up.
- Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
- We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we’re done.
How to prepare
- Confirm numbers and dietary needs before the day
- Pick a flat, firm place for the van to park
- Tell us when you want to eat

What comes out of the fryer
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
Pie and chips
Pie and chips is hearty and filling, and it is especially welcome on a cold day.
Deddington questions
Do you come out to small places like Deddington?
Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.
We’re gathering after a service at Church of St Peter and St Paul: can you come?
Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Churches rarely have space for a catering van, so the food is normally elsewhere. Tell us where you’ll gather.
Can the van come to Deddington?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including Deddington. For a quote, fill in our quote form.
What does the van need?
Less than you might think: a hard surface or firm, dry grass, with a clear way in. If in doubt, send a photo.
Can you cater for allergies?
Let us know about allergies in advance, and we will give you the allergen information and what we can offer.
Is there something for children?
Of course. Sausage and chips is a favourite with children. Include children in your numbers.
What happens if it rains?
We carry on in the rain, because the cooking happens inside. Soft ground after heavy rain is the bigger issue, so have a hard-surface spot in mind.
What can guests choose from?
Chip-shop favourites: cod, haddock, chips, sausages and pies, plus mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy. Our menu has the details.
Before you choose a spot
The right spot keeps everyone safe and the service smooth. We need:
- Somewhere close to where people will eat
- A lit spot if service runs after dark
- Permission from the venue or landowner for the van
If in doubt, send us a picture of the spot and we’ll advise.

Diets, allergies and planning
We need to know about dietary needs and allergies in advance, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer. To make it work smoothly:
- Let your neighbours know
- Ask about dietary needs on the invitation
- Check parking restrictions if the van is on the street
- Tell us how many children are coming
After service, we pack up.
Somewhere to sit makes eating easier.
A chip van compared with other options

Takeaway run or book a van?
DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. Booking the van means hot food and no stress.
Some hosts try a takeaway order. Large orders are slow, and the food cools in the bags. A van solves that by cooking on site.
- Fried fresh to order in the van at your event
- Cod, haddock and chips, sausages and pies
- The van comes to you: homes, venues, workplaces and fields
- Served at the time you choose, from the hatch
